It is said that face-changing came from the ancient people. They drew different shapes on their faces to drive the beasts (猛兽) away. The skills in face-changing generally have three kinds: smearing (涂抹), blowing and pulling. Smearing is to smear the colored paints on the face and during performance (表演), the actor would smear the paint to turn his face to another color. They only can smear the paints on a specific (特定的) part to change that part.For example, he can only smear on his nose. Blowing only works with powders (粉末). During the performance, the actor would dance to throw his face close to the powder and blow it. The powder will stick to the actor’s oiled face quickly and change it to another color.The actor must pay attention to closing his eyes, mouth and holding his breath when blowing. Pulling needs more skills. The masters draw the facial mask (面具) on a piece of silk, cut it and tie silk thread (线) to each mask before gluing them to the actor’s face. The silk thread is tied to the actor’s clothes, which is easy to control but not eye-catching. During the performance, the actor will pull off the masks one by one under the cover of dancing movements. Then they can change the face into green, red, black and so on for several times. The actor’s movements must be skillful and fast so that they can have a perfect performance to cheat people’s eyes. In all, face-changing is a very special art of Sichuan Opera. Actors have performed it in many other Chinese operas and even abroad. 变脸是川剧中使用的一种技艺，也是一种展现剧中人物内心情感与思想的能力。相传变脸源于古人，他们在脸上绘制不同图案以驱赶猛兽。 变脸技法主要分为三种："抹脸"、"吹脸"和"扯脸"。"抹脸"是将彩色颜料涂抹在脸上，表演时，演员通过抹擦颜料使脸色变成另一种颜色。他们只能将颜料涂抹在特定部位来改变该部位。例如，可以只抹在鼻子上。 "吹脸"仅适用于粉末。表演时，演员舞动身体，将脸贴近粉末并吹气。粉末会迅速粘附在演员涂了油的脸上，从而改变脸色。演员在吹粉时必须注意闭眼、闭口和屏住呼吸。 "扯脸"需要更高的技巧。艺人将脸谱画在绸子上，剪好，并在每个脸谱上系好丝线，然后将其粘贴在演员脸上。丝线系在演员的衣服上，这样易于控制又不显眼。表演时，演员在舞蹈动作的掩护下，将脸谱一张张扯下。这样，他们就能将脸多次变为绿色、红色、黑色等等。演员的动作必须娴熟、迅速，才能完美地表演，瞒过观众的眼睛。 总之，变脸是川剧中一门非常独特的艺术。演员们已在许多其他中国戏曲中甚至国外表演过它。 【长难句分析】 原句： "The masters draw the facial mask on a piece of silk, cut it and tie silk thread to each mask before gluing them to the actor's face." 分析： 此句包含多个连续动作，由", and"和"before"连接，描述了制作和准备脸谱的流程。"before gluing them..."是时间状语从句，说明系丝线在粘贴脸谱之前发生。"them"指代前面的"each mask"。 翻译： "艺人将脸谱画在绸子上，剪好，并在每个脸谱上系好丝线，然后将其粘贴在演员脸上。" 原句： "The actor's movements must be skillful and fast so that they can have a perfect performance to cheat people's eyes." 分析： "so that"引导目的状语从句，表示"为了，以便"。"to cheat people's eyes"是不定式短语作目的状语，进一步说明完美表演的目的就是"欺骗观众的眼睛"，即让观众看不出破绽。 翻译： "演员的动作必须娴熟、迅速，才能完美地表演，瞒过观众的眼睛。" 【重难词汇梳理】 sichuan Opera: 川剧 face-changing: 变脸 inner feelings and thoughts: 内心情感与思想 characters: 人物，角色 drive away: 驱赶 beasts: 猛兽 smearing: 抹脸 blowing: 吹脸 pulling: 扯脸 colored paints: 彩色颜料 Powders: 粉末 facial mask: 脸谱 silk thread: 丝线 dancing movements: 舞蹈动作 skillful: 娴熟的，有技巧的 cheat one's eyes: 欺骗眼睛，瞒天过海 Passage 2 Folk art is a kind of art. It is usually made by people in a place for a long time. It shows what the people of the place find important or interesting. Folk artists often make things that people used in their everyday life, like kites or dishes. A form of folk art from the country of Russia is the nesting doll, or the matryoshka doll. The word “matryoshka” means “mother” in Russian. People in Russia began to make these dolls a little more than 100 years ago. They learnt about nesting dolls from folk artists in Japan, who had learnt about them from folk artists in China. Chinese artists began making nesting boxes about a thousand years ago. Later, Japanese began making nesting dolls. The dolls usually have round heads and long bodies without hands, but people can paint hands on if they want. Usually there are five dolls in a set, but some sets have twelve or more dolls. In a set of nesting dolls, each one is smaller or bigger than the others. In each doll, except the smallest one, you can find a smaller doll inside. The smallest doll is often made of a piece of wood. Nesting dolls have a special meaning. The biggest doll is called “mother”, which means an important woman who is the head of the Russian family. The smaller dolls inside the biggest one are its children. That’s to say, the mother gives birth to lots of children. So, nesting dolls mean fertility. Today, nesting dolls are made in many different shapes like animals, fairy-tale characters, and even movie stars. Clearly, this form of folk art still shows what people find interesting. 民间艺术是一种艺术形式，通常由某一地区的人们长期创作而成。它展现了当地人民认为重要或有趣的事物。民间艺术家常常制作人们在日常生活中使用的物品，例如风筝或盘子。 俄罗斯的一种民间艺术形式是套娃。"matryoshka"这个词在俄语中的意思是"母亲"。俄罗斯人开始制作这些娃娃仅有一百多年的历史。他们是从日本的民间艺术家那里了解到套娃的，而日本的民间艺术家又是从中国的民间艺术家那里学来的。中国艺术家大约在一千年前就开始制作嵌套的盒子。后来，日本人开始制作嵌套的娃娃。 这些娃娃通常有圆圆的头和长长的身体，没有手，但如果愿意，人们也可以把画上去。一套套娃通常有五个娃娃，但有些一套有十二个或更多。在一套套娃中，每个娃娃都比其他娃娃大一些或小一些。在每个娃娃里面，除了最小的那个，你都能找到一个更小的娃娃。最小的那个娃娃通常是用一块木头做成的。 套娃具有特殊的含义。最大的娃娃被称为"母亲"，这象征着作为俄罗斯家庭核心的重要女性。最大娃娃里面那些较小的娃娃是她的孩子们。也就是说，这位母亲生育了许多孩子。因此，套娃象征着多子多福。 如今，套娃被制作成许多不同的形状，比如动物、童话人物，甚至是电影明星。显然，这种民间艺术形式仍然展现着人们认为有趣的事物。 实战演练 一、阅读理解 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Chuanjiang Chants (川江号子) is a form of folk singing performed by Chuanjiang boatmen in order to unify their movements and rhythms (节奏).

Teaching embroidery is a family tradition, and Qin’s two daughters-in-law usually join her in teaching youngsters. Phoenixes (凤凰), dragons and flowers are common patterns featured in folk art, which are reproduced on embroidered products. Spider flowers, seen as a symbol of good wishes, are very important in Dong people’s embroidery patterns. Every Dong girl is encouraged to learn the skill at an early age, around 9 or 10 years old. When she gets married, she will traditionally receive a whole set of clothes, including a wedding dress, made by her mother.

Therefore, it is also an art.”可知，川江号子总是以明亮的声音、优美的音调和优美的声音演唱，因此，它也是一门艺术。故选D。 4．主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“Hope that more and more people can get the chance to know the wonderful culture.”并通读全文可知，作者的目的是为了让更多的人了解和记住川江号子文化。故选A。 B “Dong” is one of China’s 55 ethnic minorities, with a population of less than three million, mainly living in South China. The ethnic group is well known for its traditional embroidery (刺绣), which has long been passed down from generation to generation (世代相传).
